Description

The newest United States Congress was sworn into session in early January. After the back-and-forth of selecting the Speaker of the House, it was almost immediately faced with another widely-followed issue: the debt ceiling.

America recently hit “the debt ceiling”, and there doesn’t appear to be a solution to it on the horizon. This begs the questions: The debt ceiling: What is it? What does it mean to reach it? What are short and long-term ramifications if nothing is done? And what solutions are there?

Michael Toma, Ph.D., is the Fuller E. Callaway Professor of Economics for Georgia Southern University, and has given countless presentations on economics and finance. A written version of the podcast can be found here.
